I've been thinking this so often that I want to say it. As I listen to the news, during these confusing, frightening, and scarey times, for all of us around the world, I want to thank those beyond our borders who, with goodwill, are crossing them, to come into New York City for our event. You are going to mean so much in our celebration's success.

I want to thank those within our borders, as well. You will mean no less.

Liz, brings me in mind of the LC song "The Partisan" (not the plonker on this board) and the words............
"and they poured across the Border, they were cautioned to surrender"
although i won't be in New York, i can imagine you all surrendering to the wonderfull atmosphere that will be there.
Best Wishes to you all.........Georges

~ GREAT use of that line, Vesuvius . Even had I been inclined at the time, I was in the same situation for Hydra. We'll see you in Berlin though, eh? [Not that Berlin is the selected venue, but it would certainly make sense ~ for now it can be the symbol for the next event].

I still wish you were coming to this one . Thanks for your well wishes. I'll do what I can to document for you. Ciao .
